Making a Difference

Today the Outreach Community Center’s case worker brought two young men by to get bikes. Thanks to a government grant these students will work 25 hours/week this summer for pay. Both of these young men have been in the OCC summer at risk program. They have now graduated from High School in the Class of 2013 and plan to go on to College of DuPage in the fall. One hopes to pursue his dream of architecture.

We had the privilege of providing these young men with bikes so they could get to their summer maintenance jobs. They are putting away money so they can one day trade in their two wheels for a reliable four wheeled vehicle. But for now they were so glad to have a reliable set of wheels that will help them pedal towards their dreams.
